I take it you did not look at my links. As far as the elevated hematocrit levels goes, Pacquiao already agreed to a blood test immediately after the fight.
Pac got 8oz gloves.. er.. thats it. Not sure about ring size but Floyd's getting 50/50 purse, the fight is at 147, its in his hometown, his judges..**** what more could you ask for?
He's right EPO and blood doping would be great for a boxer, but those are way too complicated and requires more than the expertise of a nutritionist.
you are right about that.....all of a sudden he can still be considered "undefeated" again in the eyes of people like his man Jim Lampley. although he has taken a vicious beating twice:deal
Plus Pac got the $10M per pound fine if Floyd comes in over weight. Won't happen, but Pac asked for it and Floyd agreed.
I read that one before..but u have to take notice of the part i resize, and then i read on another thread that pac said just not 1 or 2 days before the fight. Which one is it? All this swish is swoosh are making all fans confused and believe and quote different things. I think 1-2 days before fight is fair if pac really said that, and just to make sure they could always have someone to check for both fighters during that interval
That's why Arum wants to put it in the hands of the commission, that way whatever the commission decides they will have to abide by.
Enzo, good to see you still have your sense of humor !!! Roach said, " Manny is squeemish about needles " Hmmm, how were his tattoo's done ?
Why is it that there is still the issue of manny not wanting to take the test when I thought all he cared about was who gave the tests . Manny is going to have to take a test with a much shorter window than 30. days since it was discovered he took a blood test for the Hatton fight 14 days before the fight . I still don't see why people aren't seeing this as this is whats stalling this . Manny is willing to give blood but just not to any copmpany designated by GBP or MW.
I see why they asked for it - but this time is a little different. He came in above the catchweight but still at WW limit. This time there is no catchweight, so presumably there should be no problem for him to make the weight. Either way, Pac wanted it so Floyd agreed. Asking for that big of a fine is also unprecedented.
PBF already had Marquez move up 2 weight classes then stiffed him on the scales... Marquez had to agree to the new clause as he had already trained for a postponed fight For this fight a catchweight or 147 is irrelevant as Floyd started asking for 154!!
Even Cotto agrees. Anyone with half of a brain will say Pacquiao looks suspicious. Giving him a free pass and pretending to believe his dumb excuses is kind of funny. The fact that he won't accept random Olympic testing tells you all you need to know. There are PEDs that won't show up in urine tests including HGH, that's one reason they don't want random blood testing.
Well ****, if this is true, it looks like most major sports only do urine. If just urine is good enough for the super bowl and world series, it's good enough for this fight !!!
